Plastic enclosures manufactured from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) are not recommended for archival photographic storage. This plastic, often referred to as "vinyl", is not as stable as some other plastics. It can contain volatile plasticizers acid as it deteriorates.

Rip Resistant Seals

A stitched sealing method that allows each seal to work independently to resist tearing, unlike straight-line that continue to separate completely once the rip begins. In addition, stitched sealing increases the airflow between pockets and therefore further protects against ferrotyping, moisture.

Easy Contact Prints

By placing a loaded file page (negatives must remain emulsion side down) directly on top of the printing paper, it is possible to make sharp contact prints as well as enlargements for testing and proofing purposes.

Blech!The plastic thickness of the Archival Plus pages is much thicker than the Archival Classic pages and this makes sliding in negatives tricky, especially for 5 or more frames. You have to be exceedingly careful or you'll mash your negs. Also, the spacing was off in the batch I got making the middle row much harder to get the film strip into than the others (which were already hard). The Archival Plus pages also have a drier feeling to them which is disconcerting because is feels like the negative media is actually scratching. After using three pages I punted and went back to the Archival Classic style pages.

Difficult to UseI should have given more weight to the critique of a previous reviewer. These storage pages for 35 mm negatives are made of slightly heavier material than the Archival Classic. Unfortunately, although they very likely are more durable, the Archival Plus 35 mm negative pages are much more difficult to use. Negative strips do not slide easily into the individuals sleeves. In fact, it is quite difficult. I had to use tweezers to pull the negative strip into the sleeve. I returned the package and ordered the Archival Classic, which I subsequently found to be much more satisfactory.

Excellent productUsing it to store old 35mm negative strips. Easy in and out of the sleeves. Not sure why others had trouble with it. Better quality than the cheaper ones. Note there is no specific place to write notes on these pages, so if you need that function, don't order these.

Always trust ClearFileI've purchased other brands like Print File etc and never been as satisfied as with ClearFile. I've used a variety of their negative and print storage pages for my large family archive project. Their pages are always smooth, well-made, and soft but thick.

Just what I expectedThese negative holders were just what I expected when I ordered them. They get the job done. One good thing about them is they have several holes to fit several size binders. I do wish they had labels on the side so it is easy to write the date on them.

Great product as promised!We file our negatives for long periods of time and have found the easiest way to do so is with these sleeves. The only suggestion would be to have a white tab at the top for writing photo information, but for the price, we have improvised!

Good ProductNo issues with this product at all. I was able to get about 1 roll of film negatives on each page (24 shots). I am archiving all my negatives after I scanned them and this is a great solution.

A Tight SqueezeFit very snug, yet are perfect for what they are intended to do. The only struggle is sliding the negative strips in. After that they fit like a dream and are a perfect size for a notebook.
